    Waited 30 minutes while the workers were standing around chatting. Never even had my order taken. Pushed the button multiple times, other cars that pulled up after me were served. I was not.

    Several stalls were not operational. We ordered a large and medium onion rings and they both looked exactly the same. We ordered medium chicken bites and 4 ranch dipping sauce to cover all 3 items, but only got 2.

    Most of the workers are pretty friendly but they can be painfully slow... it can take up to 20 minutes for them to even take your order once you've pressed the red button. That's happened to us a few times lately. Especially later in the evenings even if they aren't busy still slow. The foods been right every time tho so that is a plus!

    The food and service was great. The bathroom was nasty and the screen on the patio where we were sitting didn't work so we couldn't pay at the screen. But they did brew some coffee for me even though it was 8 p.m. so overall it was a good experience.
